I am passionate, curious, and funny as hell.
My Self-Summary
I thought instead of trying to sum myself up in a blurb, I would
give you 10 interesting little tidbits and then you can draw your
own conclusions...
1. My heroes growing up were Leonard Bernstein, Lucille Ball, Jack
Benny, and She-Ra.
2. On three different occurrences, I have confronted someone who
has gone as me for Halloween.
3. I wear a scarf almost everyday.
4. When I imagine heaven, there is always yellow cocktail music,
played by Bobby Short, Ethel has a Gin and Tonic with a cucumber
waiting for me at the bar.
5. I am PBS junkie.
6. Sarah Palin gives me nightmares. Still.
7. I moved into my current apartment because it reminded me of
Paris.
8. I use words like "maudlin," "exquisite," and "demure."
Often.
9. I have contemplated a brooch.
10. I think Kim Stanley is magic.
What I’m doing with my life
I am an artist, an actor, and a writer. I work on a monthly queer
comedy show and am working on a one man show about beauty.
I’m really good at
a clever retort, arguing politics, dancing(I am a great lead),
trying new things, making a mean Latke, crying at the ballet,
invariably cursing in front of children, and well, I am great
kisser.
The first things people usually notice about me
My voice, my intonation and accent are unique but funny.
Then my hair.
Then my eyes.

Food
love to cook, try new things
but love French or Mexican Food the best.
The six things I could never do without
My Ipod,
My Keats,
My Fantastic Friends,
My art,
beautiful Language,
fascinating humanity.
It sounds high felootin' but I didnt want to put my comforter,
which is divine, or late night pizza from joe's.
But both are pretty great
I spend a lot of time thinking about
why I end up answering all these questions about myself.
On a typical Friday night I am
out at a show, or having a drink with friends.
The most private thing I’m willing to admit here
you are going to have to work a little harder than that to get
anything out of me.
You should message me if
you are kind, curious, artistic, and fun.
If you are gorgeous too that never hurt anybody.
